All Chapters of FORBIDDEN MATES: Chapter 71 - Chapter 79

"Kendra!" Adira screams, her expression alarmed as she runs to her lover's rescue, while a six-foot vengeful Jake storms toward the brunette, his expression murderous, his stormy brown eyes brewing with killing intent. The brunette rises from the water like an angel of death, her hair matted to her head, dripping with water, while her icy blue eyes hardened as she readied to defend herself against the raving mad teenager rushing toward her. Jake got to Kendra before Adira, and with a furious yell, raised his hand again to punch the brunette, his mind empty except for the boiling rage inside him. He doesn't care that she is a woman, and is hell bent on teaching her a lesson. Kendra goes still, waiting for the right moment to strike. It comes when she sees the approaching fist from her side eye, and her hand springs forth to catch the descending limb. Jake will not be deterred by his immobilised limb and strikes out with the other, which automatically ends within Kendra's grasp. Kend

The air of festivity hung around the pack as they prepared for the marking ceremony between Adira and Jake. Everyone was excited and pretty much looking forward to the evening ceremony where they get to witness the Alpha heir get hitched with the most promising young warrior of the Pack.They have all forgotten the event of the past few weeks, which the Alpha sold as his demented adopted daughter trying to corrupt his daughter. Almost everyone but the Alpha’s words. Few had questions, but none had the courage to ask. They all went along with the flow of things, most of them, content not to have a foreigner at the seat of power in their Pack. The only one who seems to mourn the departure of the brunette was the blonde, the Alpha’s daughter. Adira walks around with fake smiles and strong face, pretending all is well with her heart, but only those close to her could see the heavy cloud of sadness hovering over her head. The blonde is unhappy, and rightly so. Her mother is worried, he

“I Kendra Wolf, reject you, Adira Wolf, as my mate!” The brunette spits venomously, with a look of hatred on her face, ignoring the tears pouring down the blonde’s face. The blonde’s heart cracks at her sister’s callous words, a sound so loud that the blonde could hear it. “Kendra!” She cries, reaching for her sister. The brunette hit her hand off hers as soon as they touched, her expression hardened. “I don’t want anything to do with you,” she snarls, and turns away. “Kendra please!” Adira begs, falling to her knees in a weeping heap, but the brunette ignores her cries and continues to walk away. “Kendra wait!” The blonde screams louder, trying to rise to her feet, but couldn’t and wails harder as she watches her sister disappear out of sight. A dark figure stands in the hospital room watching the blonde’s face, witnessing her struggle as she battles her demons unconsciously. She could see a mist of sweat on the blonde’s forehead, and her moans of distress struck a cord in her

After getting the life scared out of her, Adira opened her eyes to see her friends and family openly smiling at her, their eyes glowing with joy. She didn’t have the heart to disappoint them so she acted as they expected. She fakes a smile, looking at every one of them in the eyes, and pretending to share their happiness, when that word is the last thing she is feeling right at this moment. And despite Jake standing at the center of the gathered group, she somehow managed to skip his presence. Maybe because he is the last person she is thinking of right now. Her eyes catch his when he starts walking towards her, bearing a beautiful banquet of white roses, and a face full of gorgeous smiles. How dare he smile like everything is alright between them, Adira hissed in her mind, her smile faltering as Jake slowly closed the gap between them. Everyone in the room watched them, their expression eager and anticipatory. She can’t act cold toward him lest she raises their suspicion. Adir
